Chapter 375 A Long Game

A few days later, Johnathan found an opportunity to speak with Quinn.

“Having Dora follow you around every day isn’t a long–term solution,” he said. “If she doesn’t want to go to preschool, let her stay home. I’ve found two reliable people–they can move in with you and help take care of her. It’ll take the pressure off you, and Dora won’t have to be dragged around all the time.”

Quinn was caught off guard at first, then seemed touched. “Thank you, but it’s really not necessary.”

“She’s finally not afraid of people anymore–I don’t want her to regress. The two people I found are women with backgrounds in psychology. They’ll be good for her. Dora deserves to grow up in Ja stable environment–not like this.”

Johnathan’s words left Quinn with no room to argue. In the end, she simply nodded and added, casually, “You’ve changed a lot. Very thoughtful now.”

The old Johnathan would never have considered this sort of thing.

Johnathan replied offhandedly, “It’s all thanks to your sister–in–law. She’s worried about Dora, and that made me pay more attention too.”

That comment left Quinn feeling uneasy–but also slightly relieved.

She’d worried Johnathan might be suspicious, suddenly wanting to plant people in her house. But if he was only doing it for Sierra, then maybe it wasn’t so bad.

Still, having extra people around was inconvenient. She’d have to be more careful.
